Tips for Using VITA Workspace

  • Community Documents (formerly Working Groups): Community tab, select "My Communities". Select appropriate Community. Select "Workspace" from secondary navigation bar. Select "Document" from navigation bar on the left.
  • Post documents to the workspace folder structure. DO NOT POST documents to the "Library" tab. The library is used for discussion attachments by the system.
  • Join Community (formerly Working Group): Community tab, select "My Communities". From secondary navigation dropdown menus, select the second dropdown and pick "Communities I can join". Click Join next to appropriate Community. Check how you would like to receive messages and join.
  • Discussion email alias: "vita-xx@ConnectedCommunity.org". If this does not work, goto the discussion page of your community, then the "Post New Message" button. The email alias of the community is posted on the community home page.
  • WebEx Conference Calls: Go to vitameeting.webex.com. Find the meeting you wish to join from the calender. Weekly view works great. Click on Join. Be sure you have the password from the meeting administrator. You can find your Attendee ID under the Meeting Info tab after you have joined the meeting.
  • Document folder navigation in workspace is not obvious. Click on the "folder ICON" under the "D" in "Documents" in the middle pane to see the full folder structure. Then click on the "+/-" to open/close sub-folders.
